To be honest he'd always been the type to use the striking fear method when he could, he found it worked, and the brighter style Dick had just never suited him. But this was something else, and the look Bruce gave him along with the slight challenge in the question actually had some of the nervousness seep away so he could look the man in the eye again.
"I never said I was, and I don't know if anyone can ever be, I just know that Gotham needs a statement now. And it needs Batman. At least long enough to get this under control. And...I know I have no right to it, or to even ask really, you letting me stay Robin is a lot and I appreciate it more than I can explain. Batman is yours, it's always going to be, but...Gotham needs it, especially now. What you created, it was good, it worked. I'm not you, and I can't be you, but the cowl alone...that brings something to Gotham that nothing the rest of us created can. And that's why I'm asking, because, at least for now, that's what we need."
